Lucida is a rather modern font. It has ligature, some are language 
dependent. But no historic ones. Btw, an interesting property of lucida 
is that in needs no kerning which is quite an achievement.

For these your font needs the hlig feature, which Lucida doesn't seem to have.

$ otfinfo -f "$(mtxrun --find-file LucidaBrightOT.otf)"

[NTG-context] Historic ligatures with lucidaot

2020-01-16 Thread Otared Kavian
Hi all,

How can I add the so-called « historic ligatures », such as in st, ct, to a 
font (assuming it has that feature)?

For instance

\setupbodyfont[lucidaot]

\starttext

construction

\stoptext

does not show the historic ligature in « st » and in « ct »: how can I get them?

Best regards: OK
